Is it a translation of the American guide or does it have entirely different content with coverage of Cuban baseball.

Jason, I answer the question of the Spalding Guide in Spanish from 1885, they were authorized to be printed in Cuba, they have some information about baseball in the United States, and the regulations of that year, but the most information is about Cuban baseball, the different teams and the leagues that existed at that time, very interesting data, Valentin E. Frau, was also authorized to send information to Spalding to publish in the United States guide, I show you some photos of the guide that I took a while ago , if you who read me in this thread are interested, I will continue with this topic, let me know.
